Captain America Civil War: Who will Martin Freeman be?

CinemaBlend dropped some more news on the upcoming Captain America: Civil War. This morning, creator Mark Millar gave us exclusive hints on Martin Freeman's character in the movie. This is what he had to say on the matter:

The character is not a super-person, it's somebody who's...well, I don't want to spoil it for anybody but he's not going to be in costume. Once you get to see it, it's so obvious. All I'll say is, he's not [Captain America villain] the Red Skull.

Interesting. Then, course, along with that, came this picture:

What could this mean? Well, according to a speculation on CinemaBlend, it's possible he could play Marvel government liason Henry Peter Gyrich, who you may remember played a somewhat important role in the animated series The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes!

Who knows who he might be, but we'll find out eventually.

Catch Captain America: Civil War in theaters May 6, 2016.
